There is simply no way to convey to the organic mind that he exists across the spectrum of a multidimensional reality -- and that he is anything more than the reflection of his physical body that he sees in the mirror. When Paul warns that the baptized and confirmed Christians who have received all the gifts of the spirit and the laying on of hands, will look upon the Mysteries of God as
"foolishness" (see
http://ebionite.com/defeat.htm ), then an intelligent and truly rational person would have to carefully evaluate this statement. When the first century elder Ignatius writes:
“Might I not write to you things more full of mystery? But I fear to do so, lest I should inflict injury on you who are babes. Pardon me in this respect, lest, as not being able to receive their weighty import, ye should be strangled by them” (see
http://BeingOfLight.com ) -- then this should cause you to consider that the mind of physical man is incapable of comprehending the higher reality that he is making reference to. The question becomes, how do you convey to the organic mind or man, what is impossible for him to perceive and comprehend? Without undergoing the process of the transmutation of his lower animal nature -- the transformation of his organic consciousness -- and the alchemical evolution of is seed-essence to Completion?
It is impossible to embrace the thinking, mindset and lifestyle of the people of this world, and understand man's own higher soul-reality. What this means is that radical changes must first take place, before man can even begin to comprehend his own higher soul-reality -- much less the Kingdom of which Paul warned that when he entered the higher reality of the Kingdom, he witnessed “…things so astounding that they are beyond a man's power to describe or put in words…” -- and after gazing upon this higher reality, what he witnessed was of such a profound nature that he was “…not [be] allowed to tell them to others” (2 Cor 12:4 TLB). Why? Because man's own higher soul-reality, is inconceivable to his organic consciousness that is of this world. Thus, Yeshua could only reveal the higher minor mysteries of the Gospel, concealed within the allegorical parables -- i.e., "And the disciples came and said to Him, Why do You speak to them in parables? He answered and said to them, Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given" (Matt 13:10-11 NKJ). And as the seeker progresses into a disciple who is in the world and not of it, they must come to understand that the whole of the Gospels are an allegory -- and they must learn to apply the Key of Knowledge to understand the inner spiritual meaning.
What this means is that one way or another, you must rid yourself of the mind and thinking that is of this world. Since organic man is incapable of understanding his true reality and form, it is necessary to instruct him to surrender to God. Slowly, as the person of faith begins to more and more live in accord with the principles of the Sermon on Mount -- and to seek the knowledge of the Kingdom -- the process of transformation slowly begins to permit his mind to evolve and embrace higher concepts of spiritual reality. Often, this requires a great multitude of lifetimes, because the seekers get stuck on a doctrinal fixations and imbued with sectarian limitations that stagnates them, and causes them to spiritually flat-line. Often, it is necessary for them to be born into the very thing they condemn -- sometimes several times -- in order for them to evolve beyond the doctrinal limitations of organic man. In the same way that the key to AA is to get the addicted person to put their faith in a higher power, this same equation is necessary to bring about the transmutation of the lower nature, and the transformation of the organic consciousness -- in order for them to even begin the process of alchemical evolution and soul-development beyond the consciousness of this world. In the 90th chapter of the Gospel of the Nazirenes
(see
http://gospel.nazirene.org/gospel_nine.htm#chapter90 ):
"As you keep the holy law of love, which I have given to you, so will the truth be revealed more and more to you, and the spirit of truth which comes from above will guide you, albeit through many wanderings, into all truth, even as the fiery cloud guided the children of Israel through the wilderness. Be faithful to the light you have, till a higher light is given to you. Seek more light, and you will have abundantly; rest not, until you find. God gives you all truth, as a ladder with many steps, for the salvation and perfection of the soul, and the truth which seems today, you will abandon for the higher truth tomorrow. Press toward perfection."
In order to grab the next rung of a ladder, you must first let go of the previous rung -- and few people are willing to do this. And what makes the process truly difficult, is the fact that the higher reality which they seek, is impossible for them to perceive and understand, so long as they continue to cling to the rung of the past. So what you are asking is this: Why doesn't the scriptures attempt to convey what is impossible for men to perceive and understand, in order to make them more factual from a higher reality that they will condemn as utter
"foolishness" and nonsense? To the degree, that in the Epistle of Peter And James it is warned that is the Knowledge Base is corrupted or destroyed, that seekers will remain lost -- ever wandering in error -- i.e.,
"Hear me, brethren and fellow-servants. If we should give the books to all indiscriminately, and they should be corrupted by any daring men, or be perverted by interpretations, as you have heard that some have already done, it will remain even for those who really seek the truth, always to wander in error. Wherefore it is better that they should be with us, and that we should communicate them with all the fore-mentioned care to those who wish to live piously, and to save others." Notice the words in red -- and let me affirm that these words remain true, beyond people's ability to imagine. To the degree that the few who escape the illusion of this world that is portrayed in Plato's Cave (
http://DivineStrategery.com#Plato ), and return to this world of illusion, when they attempt to convey to the hypnotized people of this world their own higher reality, they are viewed as deranged madmen.
In this world today there are a select few who have been sincere and serious disciples of TheWay over the course of countless lifetimes. And because each person inherits the fruit of their own past, they can sense at a deeper level the Spiritual Truths that others are blind and deaf to. And myself and others understand that until the people who are portrayed as the prodigal sons and daughters are willing to listen and to seek the Inner Kingdom -- from a Wholistic and Complete Reality that far eclipses the monastic mindset of withdrawal from this world -- and these seekers are seriously willing to re-evaluate everything they think they know, and sincerely seek the Truth -- willing to let go of each rung as the mind evolves beyond the limits of each rung of Jacob's Ladder -- then it is impossible for them to even begin to learn what eye cannot see, and what cannot enter into the heart and mind or organic man.
